The Whiskey Rebellion: When Congress imposed a tax on all whiskey things didn't look to good for the farmers. They worked and got paid for creating whiskey by reproducing the corn. Farmers organized protests and refused to pay for the tax. Also in 1794, there were officials on the western side of Pennsylvania who were trying to collect this tax. Farmers head out to Pittsburgh and eventually, this event was known as the Whiskey Rebellion.Washington responded immediately to this crisis and left to Pennsylvania and later pardoned the leaders of the rebellion. This event tested the will of the new gov. Washington's forceful explanation showed the Americans that armed rebellion wasn't acceptable in a republic.
